ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Happy Birthday to you♥
Today is also Clean Up Your Room Day which is a day to get motivated. Whether you decide to tackle a messy closet , o mounting pile of laundry , a whole room or even the entire house, it will be worth the effort.
It’s a chance to start your spring cleaning by putting things away things in their proper places. Once you’ve decluttered it will become much easer to do the actual cleaning.
The real challenge is to keep it clean after Clean Up Your Room is over.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who and how you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness. Continue to allow humor to lighten the burden of your tender heart.
Maya Angelou
This DIL happens to live close by and although I may not see her today I will be seeing her soon. I did send a card off in the mail until we can celebrate together.
I’ve started my Spring Cleaning and began with the closets. I had to switch the cold weather clothing over to warm weather stuff and also got rid of a few things that were just taking up space.
It’s so much easier to get organized when you have less stuff. I haven’t finished putting away all my Easter decorations yet, but when I’m done every thing will be much brighter and cleaner too.
It’s the Merry month of May and there has been much to do so my Spring Fling has taken a back seat but that doesn’t mean it has entirely stopped. Just slowed down a bit.
I hope you all have a GREAT day. Happy Thursday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
The year’s at the spring
And day’s at the morn;
Mornings at seven;
The hillside’s dew pearled;
The lark’s on the wing;
The snail’s on the thorn;
God’s in His heaven—
All’s right with the world!
Robert Browning
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
5963. for DDIL# 5, it’s her birthday today
5964. for time enough to get things done
5965. for life in the slow lane
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
ADVICE FOR TODAY

Happy birthday to DDIL#5! ... That smile, wow. Your son looks so FUN-loving and a real joy top be around. Blessed, indeed.
Happy Birthday to your DDIL#5! I hope her day is a merry one! It is always good to clean out and organize, but you are right, Ma, keeping in that way can be a challenge sometimes. That's why, like you said, it is better to have less stuff; less things to accumulate :)

What fun photos Pam and Happy Birthday to your DIL. Your son looks very much like you, I can really see it. What a joy to be able to enjoy your family the way you do. Like you, I agree, the hardest part of cleaning up and organizing is making sure it stays that way. I can never manage that part! Have a beautiful day. You're a ray of sunshine in this blogging world. Love you to bits! xoxo
Happy Birthday 🎂
On my list is to clean out the whole house... 😃
